Kindle Notes & Highlights
Draven whirled, slicing the head off the child nearest him with his sword. For a moment, the child's body writhed on the stone floor and my stomach heaved with nausea.
just to be clear. they’re being attacked by a horde of zombie children 👍 this seems fitting punishment for vesper and morgan trying to have sex again
A group of children was nearing Draven. For a rare moment, there was something almost beautiful occurring. Draven moved his body with an effortless elegance that spoke to his skill and experience. His sword was an extension of his arm as he spun it through the air with deadly precision, flicking it cleanly through the neck of one unnatural child then another.
PROBABLY NOT THE BEST TIME TO BE OGLING DRAVEN AGAIN.
I loosed the arrow and it landed with a revolting, fleshy sound in the center of the child's face.
obsessed with this whole scene. what this book really needed was a massacre of zombie children
I watched in disbelief as the children began dragging Lancelet across the floor towards one of the passageways from which they had come. Her eyes were closed. Blood poured from her shoulder.
nice. the author used the lesbian as cannon fodder. literally could have just left her behind in the castle, but no we had to bring her out here to get ripped apart by *checks notes* zombie children
I choked, sputtering and coughing. It was not water. “What is this?” The flavor was vaguely familiar. I tasted honey and cloves. “Just some watered down mead,” Vesper said hastily. I shook my head. “This is not mead.”
SHOCKER. he’s evil.
“I’ve never met anyone like you before, Morgan. Don’t you know how I feel about you by now?” He leaned forward towards me, his lips inches from my face. “I love you.” I stared back at him. Until a little while ago, they were the words I had been secretly hoping he would say.
👎👎👎👎👎
Now I realized I didn’t believe a word that was coming from his lips.
ONLY NOW???????
“Is that why you lied to me all this time? Tricked me into thinking you liked me? Tricked me into thinking that you actually... cared?” My voice caught in my throat and I cursed myself for showing a sign of emotion. He didn’t deserve to see it. He deserved nothing from me now.
🤢
The smile dropped away. “But I do care. That wasn’t a trick. It was an accident.” He sighed and ran a hand over his face. “I wish it was otherwise.” He studied me admiringly and I felt myself recoiling from his gaze. “I mean, look at you. You’re beautiful, Morgan. Growing more so each day. And you’re the king’s sister.” His expression turned wry. “Not that that would have worked to my advantage.”
🤨🤚
“The Siabra finally shows his claws.” The little girl tilted her head slightly. “Will your people accept her?” “They’ll have to. She’s mine now.” He bent down and gently lifted the woman into his arms. The child watched, her eyes gleaming. “And what of her? Will she accept the bond?”
oh fucking christ not another mating bond. also a whole bunch of shit happened that my brain just went ?????????
